Thunder

'Thunder' in a dream represents restless thoughts. Thunder is the sound that follows lightning -- it is the rumbling, booming echo of a powerful energetic release. In the Universal Language of the Mind, thunder reflects the mental noise that follows a flash of awareness or a period of intense mental activity. Your thoughts are restless, rumbling, and reverberating through your consciousness. Thunder is loud but it causes no damage. It is sound without substance. This reflects thoughts that make a lot of noise in your mind but do not actually accomplish anything. They rumble and roll but produce no real result. When thunder shows up in your dream, it is calling for you to quiet the restless noise in your mind. The flash of insight (lightning) has already occurred. Now let the rumbling settle. Practice concentration to bring stillness after periods of intense mental activity. Do not mistake the noise of your thoughts for the substance of understanding. Quiet the thunder and listen for the still, small voice within.
